Description
Fossil Identification
This listing features a large Promicroceras and Cymbites ammonites fossil, identified with the Jurassic Coast of Dorset, UK. The specimen is associated with two named ammonite groups, Promicroceras and Cymbites, making it an appealing addition for collectors interested in Jurassic marine fossils, ammonite taxonomy and the palaeontology of southern England.
Ammonites are extinct marine cephalopods recognised for their coiled shells and geological importance. Their fossilised remains are widely studied because ammonite forms can help document changes through geological time. A specimen associated with Promicroceras and Cymbites provides an opportunity to display named fossil material connected with the Jurassic fossil record and the rich collecting heritage of the Dorset coast.
Geological Location
The supplied locality and geological information is:
Black Ven Marls, Lower Lias, Jurassic Coast: Stonebarrow Cliff, Charmouth, LYME REGIS, Dorset, UK
The Lower Lias is a Jurassic geological succession in southern Britain, and the Jurassic Coast is internationally recognised for its exposed sedimentary rocks and fossil-bearing strata. Black Ven and the surrounding coastline are especially associated with marine Jurassic palaeontology. This locality information gives the specimen a clear geological and regional context for display, study and collection.
Collector Appeal
Promicroceras and Cymbites ammonites are of interest to fossil collectors because they represent named ammonite forms from the Jurassic marine record. The combination of both names in the product identification makes this specimen particularly suitable for a teaching collection, an ammonite display, a geology cabinet or anyone focused on fossils from the Lyme Regis and Charmouth area.
The Jurassic Coast has an important place in the history of British fossil collecting and geological study. Specimens from this region are valued for their connection to accessible coastal exposures, classic Jurassic strata and the continuing scientific interest in marine life preserved in sedimentary rocks. This piece can be displayed as a locality-labelled fossil while retaining the supplied identification and geological information.
